On Saturday 26 May 2012, on behalf of SANCF, Gauteng Climbing hosted a professional, well organised and successful 2nd Youth Selection for selection for the IFSC World Youth Championship to be held in Singapore from the 29th August to the 1September 2012, which ran like clockwork. It is pleasing to observe that the standard of climbing has risen substantially since our inaugural Selection Comp in 2011 with all climbers looking stronger and very confident on both the roof and with the new grips and volumes that Paul had introduced.

Gauteng Climbing enjoyed a great first lead competition of the season. Well done climbers and a HUGE thanks to all who helped out; Belayers - Brett, Du Plooy, Chris, Chris, George, Paul Scorers - Elaine, Kay, Paul B, Paul C, Adrian, Caryn, Anne and all the new parents who put up their hands to learn today. Admin and General Staff - Micheal, Alvin, Cara Setters - Tiffany, Brendon, Sam, Kaleigh, Brandon, Devin, Tristan and Paul (with his awesome new skills learned in Canada).We could never do this without your support - Thank you.
